Life of a Magic Academy Mage

Episode 843

After much thought, Lee Han made a decision.

‘Go to the medium skeleton golem.’

He was able to receive additional points for being the first medium-sized or higher summon, and since the summon that Lee Han had assembled the most was a skeleton warrior, he seemed to have a slight advantage.

And later, when it was time to assemble a new summon, there was an expedient way to choose a large skeleton golem.

“Let’s try a medium skeleton golem.

” Okay. Junior. … Wait a minute.”

‘Whoops. Did you get caught?’

Lee Han flinched when Direth called him.

Could it be that Direth recognized Lee Han’s strategy, which looks difficult but actually has easy parts and allows him to cleverly get through the later tests?

“The cane has changed?

“Ah. Yes. Completed.”

“What? You should have told me that first! That’s good.”

Delet was brightly happy as if it were his own work.

“Yukbeltyre, no matter what, he works hard on magic that is interesting to him. He says making wands is simple and boring, but he asked me a few times about black magnets, so I thought you might be interested.”

“Professor Verdus did it for me, but…”

“?!”

Delet was so surprised by his junior’s answer that he flapped his wings upward.

“how!?”

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t think of any other way to entrust the job to Professor Verdus other than threatening him.

“Professor Garcia threatened me.”

‘It was a real threat.’

It was an unexpected answer, but it actually made me more embarrassed. Delet nodded and tried to remain calm.

“I see. I’m glad Professor Garcia convinced me.”

The threat subtly turned into persuasion, but Lee Han just ignored it.

In fact, in Einrogard, these two words were often used with the same meaning…

“You haven’t gotten used to the wand yet, have you?”

“Yes. First, I will try to use the tree spirit power.”

“What about black magnets?”

“Are you being careful about the black magnet?”

Lee Han answered because he was wondering if he was talking about the magic being canceled due to the black magnet on the staff.

But Delet slowly shook his head.

“I guess it’s because you’re Professor Verdus that you didn’t explain it properly.”

“Senior Yukveltyre didn’t really explain it well either…”

“Listen, junior.”

‘You’re changing your tone.’

Delet began explaining about the black magnet.

It is common sense for wizards not to use minerals that absorb magical power, but originally, wizards were basically a group of people who were far from common sense.

When they find a poisonous mushroom, instead of avoiding it, they try to eat it little by little and wonder, ‘How can I not use this effect?’

Of course, there were cases of such research on black magnets as well.

“The representative one is reverse magic. Junior, you probably haven’t learned it yet…”

“I learned it from the principal last year. He said I would encounter a lot of magic criminals, so I learned how to disarm their secret magic.”

“Of course, junior, I thought you would have learned it.”

Direth continued speaking without changing his expression, as he was quite accustomed to the junior member of the Wardanaz family.

Reverse magic was a very difficult art among the many advanced techniques of magic.

In the first place, there is no separate spell called ‘reverse magic’, but the method of destroying the opponent’s magic is all reverse magic, so the difficulty is bound to be high.

Identify the opponent’s magic in advance and interrupt and break it beforehand.

It’s simple, but to make this possible, you need a sharp sense to first understand the opponent’s magic and extensive knowledge to distinguish the identity of that magic. And you needed to have the agility to be one step ahead of your opponent.

“Actually, I have rarely used counter magic. I often use ‘Baldororn’s Magical Hammer’.”

“I understand. That method suits you well, junior. But you can’t blow away all magic like that, right? And some magic can cause too much damage if you don’t block it before casting. The black magnet on this staff is used by you, junior, to counter-magic. I’ll help you write it.”

When Lee Han himself cast a spell, the moment he focused his mind on the black magnet part rather than the wood part, the magic was disturbed or canceled.

So what if you focus your mind on the black magnet after coming into contact with the opponent’s magic?

“…This is where such strong interference and interference is involved. Of course, contacting the opponent’s magic requires a lot of magic power and concentration, but it is well worth the effort.”

“I think so.”

Lee Han nodded in surprise.

In fact, the black magnet was only thought of as an advantage that allowed the staff to withstand when casting powerful magic.

I never thought this kind of counter-magic would have its advantages.

“Senior Direth, where did you learn this?”

“Wizards from the black magic school have a lot of contact with the devil, so they often use black magnets.”

“……”

Lee Han regretted asking for no reason.

In fact, when it comes to high-ranking demons, it is often difficult for a wizard to subdue them with strength versus strength.

The ability to deceive, negotiate with, or even tie the other person up and run away becomes much more important.

At such times, metals like black magnets became surprisingly useful.

Your own magic is bound, but the magic of the opponent’s demon is also bound…

“Then, shall we do a quick practice? Eight curses of 2 circles or less. I will randomly select from among these and cast them, so try to interrupt them somehow with countermagic before they are cast.”

‘Tsk. ‘You’re doing too much.’

The time to create a skeleton golem was already running out, but Lee Han was thrilled by his senior’s strictness in increasing the difficulty by further reducing the time.

But Lee Han could not bear to refuse.

If you refuse and then think that Dirette is an arrogant junior…

‘You may think that I only listen to senior lectures while paying attention to other lectures.’

That could never happen.

Lee Han grabbed his newly made staff, thinking about how he would assemble the skeleton golem in the remaining time.

* * *

“…Move!”

“Junior… I didn’t summon you from another dimension, but you assembled it, so there’s no point in shouting…”

“Ugh.”

The counter-magic practice that Direth mentioned was quite successful.

Of course, Direth took care of the situation so that his junior could get used to the cane, but the result was quite good.

-I think I know what it feels like. senior. It is still difficult to interfere when the distance is far, but it is clear when the distance is close…

-It would be good to know the structure and practice blocking magic that is easy to interfere with first.

In comparison, assembling the skeleton golem was quite difficult.

‘shit. ‘I don’t have much time.’

Lee Han checked the time with a nervous expression.

First of all, in old-fashioned, orthodox, ancient black magic, summoning undead was done in the following way.

The core reagent in which the summoned beast’s body is compressed is taken out, magic is infused into the reagent to form the summoned beast, and commands are given so that it can move even if the wizard does not control it one by one.

There were no major problems with the first process, reagents.

First of all, not only did Delet prepare the ‘Large Monster Bone’, but Lee Han also strengthened the bone fragment reagent he usually carried by adding dark elements and blood elements.

Thanks to this, even an ordinary bone fragment was able to withstand summoning a medium-sized skeleton golem.

And the second process, shape composition, was also successful right away.

This was because I had summoned a lot of skeleton warriors on a regular basis, and in case of emergency, I combined these skeletons to create a reinforced skeleton, so my understanding of the form was much higher than I expected.

The problem was the last command.

This was difficult to do in a short period of time as the wizard’s brain had to be overworked by injecting and linking commands one by one.

The skeleton golem summoned just now was trying to escape by breaking the classroom wall, and the skeleton golem summoned before that was trying to dance in 3/4 time (Dirette was surprised and wanted to leave the composition, but Lee Han himself failed to reproduce it. )…

And now the skeleton golem did not move in reverse. Since the previous skeleton golems moved as they wanted, I was a little careful and their movements seemed to be twisted.

‘Tsk. You look like an annoying skeleton golem…’

“Come to think of it, junior.”

Direth spoke to Lee Han without knowing his true feelings.

Although it was painful to lose concentration, Lee Han answered. How can you ignore a senior who is like the sky calling you?

“yes.”

“I forgot to tell you earlier, but you have a cane. I think it would be better to say that Professor Verdus forced you to make it.”

“…Yes? Why on earth would you lie like that?”

Regardless of the reason for lying, it was a lie that no one except Einrogard new students would believe.

Professor Verdus took it upon himself to help a student with his work?

‘This is seriously the most bullshit lie I’ve heard this year.’

“No. Listen carefully, junior. Professor Verdus also sometimes helps students with magic if it’s a topic he’s interested in.”

Delet opened his mouth in a cautious manner.

As Yukveltire is a school of enchantment magic, Direth knew Professor Verdus quite well.

Professor Verdus had a bad taste for sometimes secretly completing only the most interesting and exciting parts of the Buyeo Magic School students’ research and then leaving.

To put it mildly, Yukveltyre locked the door while conducting his research and made sure Professor Verdus never entered.

“That… I guess so, but why do you have to lie like that?”

“I’m afraid Yukveltire will be disappointed. I was interested in the wand.”

“Ah. You misunderstood. Senior Yukveltyre has a heart of steel and will never disappoint.”

“……”

Delet felt a little sorry for his friend who was being so confidently slandered by a fellow top junior.

But what can you do?

Everything is worth it!

“Junior. I’ve been with Yukveltire longer. Do as I tell you.”

“Okay. I can just say that Professor Verdus told me to do it, right?”

Since it wasn’t that difficult, Lee Han readily agreed.

“But if what you said is true, wouldn’t the professor be resentful of you?”

“huh.”

“……”

Lee Han said nothing and nodded calmly.

And then I focused on the skeleton golem again.

“By the way, there is Duke Ikaldoren.”

‘Ugh.’

Direth, unaware of his distressed junior’s true feelings, told him about the duke who had kidnapped him last time.

“When I first brought him here, he was so afraid that it was difficult to talk to him, but he seems to be getting better these days. He even talked to Yukveltyre well.”

“Is that true? What do you want to say?”

“Jukveltyre usually asks how much he can serve, and the duke

asks for prosciutto ham topped with truffles, chicory salad, harvested less than two days ago, and southern-style mushroom consommé of the empire.”

‘Is it possible that the principal didn’t starve properly?’

Lee Han was surprised to see that the duke still had more energy left to focus on gourmet food than expected.

If we had been eating like students, whole grilled and fried meats, hot fruit pies, cakes, chocolates,

etc. would have been served right away rather than difficult-to-remember menus.

“But is this true? It seems like we are running parallel to each other?”

“Since the duke is at a disadvantage, he will probably compromise accordingly. “If this is the case, I am talking well.”

‘Sometimes the positive side shown by seniors can be scary.’

Are you saying that’s a good thing?

Pod!

“…Senior! It’s moving! The skeleton golem moves properly!”

“What? really?! “I didn’t expect to finish it today.”

“I’m so glad… Wait a minute. “Senior. What do you mean, you didn’t know you would finish it today?”

Lee Han was about to be happy with his senior, but stopped and looked at him with a straight face.
